I wasn't assigning blame; we all know that agents are disgusting parasites who would sell their own grandmothers for a quick buck; although that is an excellent reason for not doing all of your transfers in the last hour of the window.

Originally posted by Username Wouldn't be surprised if he is looking for a new agent after this. Lots of talk he'll be off to Turkey now as their transfer window is still open. If the window is still open in Turkey can't we go after Tosun instead? Cost about the same and it was reported that he was keen on joining Palace. "Billy Gilbert really is God"

Edited by chateauferret (01 Sep 2017 2.55pm) Yeah but I think the issue might be that agents also want their players to hold on as long as possible before signing so they can shop them around more. I mean why sign before the transfer window if you think you can get a better deal. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

Thanks for the info. That obviously leaves us fairly well f***ed if Tekkers gets injured. I was being an optimist and hopping that we could sign Remy or El Hadadi(?)
